Looking into it more, it seems the controversy wasn't just the casting itself, but how Sia responded to critics about the casting. She apparently tried to claim that she didn't use autistic actors because autistic actors "found acting stressful"(?) and she thought it was more "humane" to cast Maddie. She then got called out for it by many autistic actors saying they would have been more than happy to take part, and basically replied with "yeah but you're bad actors."

Replying to an autistic actor that suggested that they and many other performers who were on the spectrum would have been available to act in the film on short notice, Sia responded: "Maybe you're just a bad actor".
